But the only reason many of those variables (e.g.
`font-lock-maximum-size', `font-lock-maximum-decoration') were added is
for speed reasons. There are no speed issues with `font-lock-face'.

I really don't see how having a few speed-related variables not
applicable to `font-lock-face' is a big drawback compared to what I
think is a big improvement in the user interface.
